E-034: Naval Institute Press. Very Good. Date: 2001. Hardcover. Hardcover. 4to. Published by Naval Institute Press, Annapolis, MD. 2001. 224 pgs. Illlustrated with black and white plates. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The British ship designers who plied their trade between 1870 and 1881 have long been criticized for being retrogressive and emblematic of the so-called dark ages of the British Admiralty. In this revisionist study, John Beeler goes beyond a purely technical analysis to examine crucial external factors that affected ship building--politics, finance, bureaucracy, strategy, and foreign threats. He makes a persuasive case that the Admiralty's sensible approach to the many problems of the decade laid the foundation for modern battleship design. Based largely on primary sources, the author's argument is backed up with solid details and many original plans that are reproduced here for the first time. This major new work will please both technical historians and everyone interested in the legend and lore of battleships. EB; 11.8 X 9.9 X 0.8 inches; 224 pages . 2001. Naval Institute Press ISBN 1557502137 9781557502131 [US]
